Tricolor expands Sony Pictures cooperation

Russia’s leading pay-TV operator Tricolor has signed a two-year contract with Sony Pictures Television (SPT).

Commenting on the development, Arsen Khomutov, Tricolor’s content director, said: “Tricolor pays great attention to the development and promotion of its own production channels. Thanks to the deal with SPT, the content on our channels has become even more diverse, and the TV channels themselves have become more competitive”.

This deal includes a fantastic collection of the latest hits and favourite films from the SPT library, as well as television content that we are sure will appeal to viewers”.
